Windfire

Written by SpinLab Team | Aug 2, 2024 11:37:43 AM

Windfire is developing a technology for direct heat generation from wind energy, replacing the turbine's electrical system with a thermal system. This heat is fed directly into a heating network, making it particularly attractive for decarbonizing district heating and industrial processes. By eliminating electrical components, the technology avoids frequent failures, increasing turbine uptime by at least 25%. Windfire uses existing wind turbines and an established industry to develop a new system by integrating proven thermal components. This enables cost-effective production and faster market entry.
